Doshas

Ayurveda, simplified.

Ayurveda is an ancient system for understanding how your body works when it is in
balance. Instead of a “one-size-fits-all” approach, Ayurveda looks at your unique patterns
—your digestion, energy, and mood - to help you give your body exactly what it needs to
thrive. At the heart of Ayurveda are three energies called Doshas.

your nervous system and creativity.

Pitta

Fire + Water

The energy of transformation. It governs
your metabolism and digestion.

Kapha

The energy of structure. It governs
your stability and nourishment.

(Your Climate)

Step 1:The Blueprint Quiz
(Your Climate)

This identifies your natural baseline, the way
your body functions when you are at your
best. Like a "Desert" or "Tundra" climate, this
stays relatively consistent throughout your
life. It explains your lifelong tendencies and
what you are naturally drawn to.

Step 2:The Current Balance
Quiz (Your Weather)

This shows what is happening right now.
Just as a desert can have a sudden
rainstorm, your body can experience
"weather" like stress, bloating, or fatigue.
Your current state changes with the
seasons, your diet, and your environment.

Golden Rule

The Golden Rule:

address the
“weather” first

In Ayurveda, we always treat what is happening right now.

If your house is naturally made of wood (your Blueprint), but the
kitchen is currently on fire (your Current Balance), you don’t
spend time polishing the wood floors. You put out the fire first.

Always prioritize the results of your Current Balance quiz. Once
you feel your energy and digestion stabilize, you can return to the
habits that support your Natural Blueprint.

PRUEBA

What is your body trying to tell you?

Your body is constantly giving you feedback through simple signals:

  • If you feel cold, dry, or restless, Vata is likely elevated.
  • If you feel hot, reactive, or irritated, Pitta is likely elevated.
  • If you feel heavy, sluggish, or congested, Kapha is likely elevated.

The real value of Ayurveda is learning to notice these signals and
respond. This quiz isn’t a permanent label, it’s a check-in tool. You
can retake it anytime your “weather” changes to see what your
body needs to return to center.
